"I dare you to try to read The Snatchabook silently to yourself. You can't do it. The book is so wonderful it demands to be read out loud. And besides, if you didn't read the book out loud, how would the Snatchabook hear it?"--Caldecott Medalist Brian Selznick

"[A] rollicking paean to the pleasures of reading aloud."--The Wall Street Journal
